Treatment of balanoposthitis

Treatment of balanoposthitis begins with the delivery of tests to determine the cause of inflammation and the microorganisms that caused the disease.

• Hygiene of the head and foreskin of the penis is the first rule of successful healing.
• Local elimination of an infectious agent using antiseptic solutions and herbal infusions to eliminate inflammation.
• Antiviral and antibacterial therapy with medicines. The treatment regimen is a urologist, individually for each patient.

Let's look at the basic methods of treating balanoposthitis:

1. Therapy with medicinal preparations - the urologist appoints tablets, solutions and ointments, proceeding from the cause of the inflammatory-infectious process.
   • With all forms of balanoposthitis, anti-inflammatory drugs of local importance, usually corticosteroids and combined remedies (Levomekol, Triderm) are used.
